This study introduces a novel navigation system for endovascular surgery, reducing radiation exposure during aortic aneurysm repair. The system uses magnetic sensors and virtual reality for real-time tool visualization, enhancing patient safety.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Surgical Navigation
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Endovascular surgery is a minimally invasive treatment for aortic aneurysms.
  • Current fluoroscopic guidance exposes patients and staff to X-rays and lacks spatial information.
  • There is a need for radiation-free navigation solutions in endovascular procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel navigation system for endovascular surgery.
  • To enable real-time visualization of endovascular tools without radiation exposure.
  • To improve the safety and precision of aortic aneurysm repair.

Main Methods:

  • A modified endoprosthesis with an integrated magnetic sensor tracked by an Aurora magnetic localizer.
  • A registration step utilizing 2.5D ultrasonography to align pre-operative CT data with the operating room reference frame.

Related Experiment Videos

  • A Virtual Reality-based navigation system displaying the endoprosthesis's location within a 3D CT model of the aorta.

    • Main Results:

    • The developed system allows real-time visualization of endovascular tools within a 3D vascular model.
    • The system eliminates the need for radiation exposure during the navigation phase.
    • The use of 2.5D ultrasonography provides an alternative to pre-operative CT data for registration.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel navigation system offers a radiation-free solution for endovascular aortic aneurysm repair.
    • This technology enhances visualization and precision, potentially improving patient outcomes.
    • The system represents a significant advancement in minimally invasive surgical navigation.
